But Shaq will not be the last with Dwyane Wade one day surely to join him, among others.

And then there he one player still wearing a Heat uniform who Shaq believes should see his number raised to the rafters at AmericanAirlines Arena.

“UD doesn’t get a lot of credit but he was the heart and soul of our team,” Shaq said Wednesday about Udonis Haslem and the Heat’s 2006 title team.

“He’s a guy that came to work every day, did whatever the organization asked of him. He even took less money a couple of times just to stay with the Heat.

“He should also get his jersey retired because he’s my hero,”

Haslem joined the Heat in 2003, the same season as Wade. Now that Wade has moved on to Chicago, Haslem is the longest tenured player ever to wear a Miami uniform. Other than Wade, nobody has played more games for Miami than Haslem, who needs just 33 appearances to equal Wade’s mark of 855.

Shaq will do his best to make sure Haslem is recognized tonight.

“I will probably bring him up there with me so he gets the standing ovation he deserves,” he said.
